Internet Addiction & Social Media: Impact on Brain Development

Like many people, I catch myself doomscrolling multiple times a day. It happens when I’m waiting for my coffee to brew or while watching TV. Ever had that moment when you’re watching a Netflix show and suddenly realize you need to rewind 10 minutes because you missed a crucial part? Happens to me all the time. Even in the middle of a conversation, I unconsciously reach for my phone. I genuinely want to give the other person my full attention, but it’s almost an automatic action that I’m barely aware of. My brain craves that quick dopamine hit, pulling me deeper into the endless algorithmic loop. And I know I’m not alone. Internet addiction is real, and it’s a serious problem in modern society.

Coffee Explained: Psychological Effects and It’s Impact on ADHD

Lifestyle Articles

For as long as I can remember, I’ve been a filter coffee enthusiast. I had my first cup when I was just 8 years old. How my parents agreed to that, I’ll never know, but somehow it happened! The simplicity, the ritual, the taste: it was all I needed. That is, until I recently decided to give a full-automatic, modern espresso machine a chance. And I call tell you that I was not disappointed, it completely shifted my perspective. Initially, I was sceptical, I even considered sending it back after the first use. But by the second day, I found myself slowly won over. The machine’s ability to craft high-quality coffee with endless options opened up a new world for me. It wasn’t just about taste, it was about energy, focus and even psychological well-being. The game-changer for me? The De’Longhi ECAM 380.95.T Dinamica. This incredible device has transformed not only how I make coffee but also how I experience its benefits. I can safely say it’s one of the best purchases I’ve made in years, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking to elevate their coffee experience.

Meditation and ADHD: Struggle or Solution for a Clearer Mind?

Lifestyle Articles

When I first started meditating, I wasn’t aware that I had ADD. At the time, I just thought my mind was constantly racing, and that staying focused was a personal struggle I couldn’t quite control. Sitting still and concentrating felt like a mental challenge I couldn’t easily overcome, but I assumed everyone else experienced the same thing, so I thought it was normal. While it’s true that everyone can have a whirlwind of thoughts at times, for neurodivergents, it’s often more intense and harder to manage. Not knowing I had AD(H)D, this constant mental chaos felt both frustrating and overwhelming.

Before I walk you through the Step-by-Step Roadmap for a successful move abroad, let me first share a bit about my own journey. One of the biggest dreams I’ve always carried with me is the desire to move abroad—to explore new cultures, embrace the unknown, and truly live a life full of adventure.

Leaving behind the comfort and security of my hometown, where everything felt safe and predictable, wasn’t an easy decision.

This blog is written to explain more about raw and pure cacao.
